Author Description

This time Lucy Ripken finds herself in Costa Rica, where the meals and hotel rooms are comped, the wildlife is exotic, and the tourists are dying. River-rafting accidents and plane crashes are just the beginning. The jungle is rife with remnants of old wars, soldiers who turned their skills to the drug trade, and worse. The cities aren't any better, infested with shady business men who will take your money with a smile, and leave your receipt pinned to your back on dagger-point. Alone and annoyed, Lucy's in no mood to let any of that crap slide. And when things go from bad to worse, she calls in the cavalry, a handsome hundred-and-eighty pounds of smiling ex-military sex appeal called Krish.
